How do I adjust my Privacy Controls for Pacer iOS?

Your privacy is important to us, and we’re committed to providing you with choices about what information you would like to share with other Pacer members. Your personal data including gender, year of birth, weight, height, blood pressure is only visible to yourself. Your public profile consists of your nickname, avatar, location, posts, activities, groups, goals, challenges & badges and routes. You can manage what to share with other Pacer members through the following in-app privacy settings. Tap the headlines below for detailed instruction on privacy control:

Set your account to private means other users must send a request to follow you. Users that are not your followers will not be able to view your page. The following screenshots show the difference between a public account and a private account:

You can control who sends you private messages on Pacer. Please go to Me page, tap the top left button to enter "Message Center". Tap the top right button to enter "Message Setting" page. Select allow private messages from "Everyone", "Only people I follow" or "Disable all private messages".

Set your goals to private means other users, including your followers, will not be able to see your goal check-ins and related posts. You can set the goal to private when you add a new goal (screenshot below). Click here to learn how to add a new goal.

You can also change the goals you added from public to private. Please see the following screenshots.

Every time you finish a GPS session, you will be asked to select whom this session you want to share with. If you select “Only Me”, only you can see this activity. If you select “My followers”, the GPS session will be posted to your Feed and your followers can see it. If you want to hide map and location details, please turn on “private map”. By selecting visible to “Public”, your GPS activity post can be seen by all Pacer members who visit your profile page or in the “Popular” or “Recent” sections of the Feed page.

The routes you created are by default visible only to yourself. If you want to share them with other users, please tap the “share” button on the detail page of the route and select whom to share with. If you want to share it with the whole Pacer community, please select “Publish” on the route detail page and it can be found on Route sharing page.

By default, posts will be generated automatically when you join a group or challenge and receive a badge. If you do not want auto posts, please go to Me > Settings > Post Settings to manage auto post settings. Please see the attached screenshots.
